Description

Review of The Black Douglas (Smith, Elder, 1899). Acknowledges Crockett's right to use melodrama but judges the novel's imperfections manifest; finds the Black Douglas a picturesque figure unhappily killed off mid-book, after which the atmosphere becomes fearsomely melodramatic. Recalls Crockett's better work in The Lilac Sunbonnet. Mixed-content page.
